A Tropical Storm Watch means that tropical storm conditions are possible within the watch area. For storm information specific to your area, please monitor products issued by your national meteorological service. DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK ---------------------- At 700 PM CDT (0000 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Gamma was located by an Air Force Reserve Hurricane Hunter Aircraft near latitude 22.9 North, longitude 87.4 West. The tropical storm is currently drifting east-northeastward near 3 mph (5 km/h). Gamma is forecast to gradually turn toward the southwest or west-southwest on Monday and move slowly in that direction through mid-week. On the forecast track, the center of Gamma will continue to meander offshore of the northern Yucatan Peninsula tonight and pass near or just offshore of the northern coast of the Yucatan Peninsula on Monday and Tuesday. Maximum sustained winds are near 60 mph (95 km/h) with higher gusts. Gradual weakening is anticipated to begin later tonight or on Monday and continue into Tuesday. Afterward, little change in strength is forecast. Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 160 miles (260 km) from the center. The estimated minimum central pressure based on preliminary data from the Hurricane Hunter plane is 998 mb (29.47 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- Key messages for Tropical Storm Gamma can be found in the Tropical Cyclone Discussion under AWIPS header MIATCDAT5, WMO header WTNT45 KNHC, and on the web at www.hurricanes.gov/text/MIATCDAT5.shtml. RAINFALL: Gamma is expected to produce an additional 3 to 6 inches of rainfall, with isolated maximum amounts of 8 inches, across portions of the Mexican states of Yucatan, Campeche and Tabasco. This rainfall may enhance any ongoing flash flooding and result in new areas of flash flooding into the middle of the week. WIND: Tropical storm conditions should continue within portions of the Tropical Storm Warning area on northern coast of the Yucatan through today. Tropical Storm conditions are possible within the Tropical Storm Watch area later today through Monday. NEXT ADVISORY ------------- Next complete advisory at 1000 PM CDT. $$ Forecaster Zelinsky

Tropical Storm Gamma Forecast Discussion Number 10

2020-10-04 22:58:18| National Hurricane Center (Atlantic)

Issued at 400 PM CDT Sun Oct 04 2020 000 WTNT45 KNHC 042058 TCDAT5 Tropical Storm Gamma Discussion Number 10 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL252020 400 PM CDT Sun Oct 04 2020 The last aircraft reconnaissance fix, recorded a couple of hours ago, indicated that Gamma's center had wobbled a little to the right of the previous 6-hour motion and is located near the southeastern edge of the convective canopy. Flight-level winds adjusted to the surface, SFMR wind data, and a blend of Dvorak satellite intensity estimates from TAFB and SAB still support an initial intensity of 50 kt for this advisory. The UW-CIMSS shear analysis reveals stiff 20-25 kt southerly shear impinging on the south portion of the cyclone. Subsequently, the large-scale models and the ECMWF/GFS statistical-dynamical intensity guidance show the shear magnitude increasing during the next 24 hours. This inhibiting upper wind pattern should induce weakening soon. Although the shear is predicted to decrease somewhat around mid-period, Gamma should exhibit little change in strength through the remaining period which is in best agreement with all of the skilled intensity guidance. As mentioned in previous advisories, it cannot be stressed enough the relatively high level of uncertainty in this intensity forecast, and that it's primarily dependent on whether or not the cyclone moves back over the Yucatan Peninsula. Gamma should continue to move little, or meander over the southern Gulf of Mexico, near the northern coast of the Yucatan Peninsula through most of tomorrow. By Monday night, the global models are in good agreement with the western extent of a subtropical ridge reestablishing temporarily over the central Gulf of Mexico. This change in the synoptic steering pattern should cause the cyclone to turn and move west-southwestward through the 72 hour forecast period. After a brief reduction in forward speed late Wednesday, while Potential-Tropical Cyclone Twenty-Six moves into the central Gulf of Mexico, a turn toward the northwest is expected on Thursday as the ridge, once again, builds back over the central Gulf in response to PTC Twenty-Six approaching the northern Gulf coast. The official track forecast is adjusted to the left of the previous one through the 60 hour period to agree more with the HCCA consensus, and shifted to the right through day 5. KEY MESSAGES: 1. Gamma is expected to produce heavy rainfall for several days over portions of southeastern Mexico, the Yucatan Peninsula, Central America, and far western Cuba. This rainfall could result in life-threatening flash flooding and mudslides, particularly in the mountainous regions of southeastern Mexico and Central America. 2. Even though Gamma is just offshore, tropical storm conditions will continue across portions of the northern coast of the Yucatan Peninsula today.
